How could I make a neat connection between 20mm plastic conduit running horizontally across a ceiling to 38 x 25 plastic trunking running horizontally along the top of an adjacent wall?
 
T box off the conduit, bend around the ceiling radius and then drop down onto the trunking with a male adapter.
 
Thanks for your reply, but unfortunately the trunking is right at the top of the wall i.e. running along the ceiling to wall junction so there is no potential to drop down to it. I think I would need to go through the trunking cover somehow.
 
Cut the trunking lid so that you have a short section where you need to connect. Cut a 20mm hole in it and join the conduit directly into the lid with a female adaptor and bush. (Won't intrude as much as a male and lock ring, and easier to pull the cable into?)
